Sleeping through the night...

So, I've always the problem with newborns are that they don't sleep through the night. Therefore, you don't sleep through the night. And that's why Mom and Dad walk like drones through the day because of lack of sleep.

Well, I'll have to say that cmb has been pretty easy on us. He usually only wakes up once around 2:30ish to eat, then doesn't wake up again until close to 6, when we are getting up for work anyway. We've been pretty fortunate this way.

The other night, he slept (or at least didn't cry) from 11-5:30, beating his previous record by 2.5 hours. The thing is, Jen woke up at 3 to pump, and then I woke up about every half hour after expecting him to cry and hoping to hear him breathing. I even got up once to make sure he was okay. Felt pretty paranoid. Maybe that's parenthood.

Anyway, last night, he woke up 3 times... so much for sleeping through the night.
